A Fresh New Shopping Experience
When we introduced curbside pickup nearly three years ago, we had no idea just how important this service would become to our customers. Curbside pickup is a great contactless solution for shopping during Covid; you can order groceries online and pick them up at a Rouses Market without even leaving your car.
We wouldn’t have been able to launch curbside pickup — or keep up with the demand during the first wave of Covid — without our vendor partners. But we’ve always prided ourselves on our Rouses Markets shopping experience, and we knew we needed our own curbside pickup, shopped and managed entirely by Rouses Markets team members. So, for the past year, we worked on creating an in-house app for just that service.
With our new Rouses Shopping App, you can shop our weekly specials and everyday low prices online, place your grocery order online, and choose a pickup time that works for you. You can even order alcohol (where available). You get your own personal shopper, who is a Rouses Markets team member that you likely know. There is no curbside pickup fee on orders over $35, and you pay the same price for groceries that you pay in our stores.
Download our new Rouses Shopping App on the App Store — or get it on Google Play — and choose which Rouses Markets shopping experience is right for you on any given day. You can always come in the store to get your groceries, or something delicious to eat or drink. Or you can order curbside on the app, and set a pickup time that works for you. You pay the same price either way.
We started rolling out our Rouses Shopping App with Curbside Pickup at the end of last year, and we’re adding that option to new stores every week. We plan to offer it companywide by the time the next issue of our magazine hits stores.
Happy New Year!
